Moravian
College students, under the direction of Moravian College faculty,
offer an eclectic musical afternoon. Ancient to modern, and some
music never heard before, will emanate from the Foy Hall stage.

Aaron
Copland's Lincoln Portrait, narrated by Moravian College President,
Christopher Thomforde, is the centerpiece of this early evening
concert. Under the direction of Donald Spieth the orchestra, made
up of Moravian College students and members of the Lehigh Valley
community, will perform Hector Berlioz' Roman Carnival & Antonin
Dvorak's Symphony No. 8 in G Major, in addition to the Copeland.

In a precursor
to the ever popular Moravian College Christmas Vespers held at Central
Moravian Church, this preview is offered for those who are unable
to get tickets to the annual December event. All of the music is
presented (the college Choir, Women's Chorus, Brass Ensemble, and
other ensembles), appropriate hymns are sung, and the charming 'Morning
Star,' led by a youthful soloist, is presented. Catch the holiday
spirit!

Music student
ensembles, led by Music faculty, offer music geared to their instruments
and voices. Because this is the 100th anniversary of the birth
of song writer Johnny Mercer, the Jazz Vocal Ensemble will honor
the celebration with his music.
